Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Bill (law)" in English language version.
During each session of a Parliament, government bills are numbered consecutively from C-2 to C-200. Private Members' bills are numbered consecutively from C-201 to C-1000 throughout the life of a Parliament, since they are not nullified by prorogation. Private bills, which are rarely introduced in the House, are numbered beginning at C-1001. In order to differentiate between bills introduced in the two Houses of Parliament, the number assigned to bills introduced in the Senate begins with an "S" rather than a "C".
